- Help Us Build The Future of Travel At , we're making it easier for people to stay connected wherever they travel. As the world's first eSIM store, we help millions of travelers access affordable mobile data in 200+ countries and regions around the world. Today, we're a team of 400+ people across 60+ countries, building a product used by travelers every day. We've grown quickly, but we've worked hard to keep what matters: trust, ownership, and the freedom for people to do great work without unnecessary layers or bureaucracy. We're fully remote by design, genuinely global, and united by a shared mission to make travel simpler for everyone. Your Next Destination Location: Remote. Contract: Full-time, permanent.

Обязанности
- Build and own the demand and elasticity modelling capability, quantifying how price affects volume across destination, duration, data tier, and customer segment.
- Develop machine learning models for demand forecasting and willingness-to-pay, and take them from exploration through to production with the monitoring and retraining that keeps them honest.
- Move us from predictive to prescriptive by building the optimisation layer that turns forecasts and elasticities into recommended prices under margin, competitive and partner constraints.
- Design and analyse pricing experiments with statistical rigour, and apply causal methods where clean randomisation isn't possible.
- Define pricing within our data ecosystem, owning the governed definitions of price, cost and package economics that reporting, analysis and product surfaces all read from.
- Partner with Commercial and Finance to connect pricing decisions to margin and revenue, and to size opportunities before we commit.
- Set the analytical standard for pricing at , from what counts as evidence through to how a model or recommendation gets validated before it influences live pricing.
Будет плюсом
- Experience in marketplace, telecom, travel, or subscription/usage-based businesses.
- Bayesian or hierarchical modelling for sparse segments and long-tail SKUs.
- Competitive price response modelling, or working with scraped competitor pricing data.
- Familiarity with dbt, LightDash, or similar semantic/BI layers.
- Experience designing semantic or metric layers consumed by both analytics and production systems.
- Experience working in cross-functional teams spanning commercial, finance and product disciplines.
Другое
- 7+ years in data science, quantitative economics, or applied research, including pricing, monetisation, or marketplace economics work that demonstrably changed decisions.
- Experience with dynamic or algorithmic pricing systems in production.
- An advanced degree in Econometrics, Statistics, Operations Research or similar, or equivalent applied depth in demand estimation and the identification problems that make naive price-quantity regressions wrong.
- Hands-on machine learning experience across the full lifecycle, from feature engineering and model selection through to deployment
- Familiarity with optimisation and decision-science methods that turn predictions into recommended actions, whether through constrained optimisation, bandits, or reinforcement learning approaches.
- Proven experimentation expertise, having designed and defended experiments with a clear view on decision frameworks and common failure modes.
- Experience building analytical capability where none existed before, turning raw data and a business question into something a commercial team uses repeatedly.
- Strong data modelling instincts, thinking in reusable definitions and single sources of truth rather than standalone analyses.
- The ability to move comfortably between financial, product and operational data and connect the analysis to a financial outcome.
- Genuine partnership instincts, translating between analytical rigour and commercial reality so that Commercial and Product come to you early rather than after the decision.
- Fluency in the Python ML stack alongside strong SQL, with the engineering hygiene to hand over code that others can run and maintain.
- Excellent communication skills, including the ability to make a methodological argument to people who won't check your standard errors.
- A self-starter mindset that thrives in ambiguity and brings structure without waiting for permission.
- Comfort using AI tools to augment analytical work, with a point of view on where they help and where they don't
